RESOLUTION NUMBER 81-33
WHEREAS, significant amendments were made to the Texas Property
Tax Code during the course of the 67th Legislature of the State of Texas,
First Called Session, 1981, all as more fully reflected in House Bill No.
30 enacted as an emergency measure at such session and signed by the Governor
on August 14, 1981; and
WHEREAS, one such amendment (Section 161 of said House Bill No.
30) authorizes the governing bodies of two-thirds of the taxing units entitled
to vote On appointment of the members of the Board of Directors of an apprais-
al district (counties, incorporated cities and towns, and school districts)
to postpone the appraisal of property for all taxing units by the appraisal
district until 1984; and
WHEREAS, said amendment provides that such decision to postpone
must be made by resolutions adopted by the required number .of such taxing
units specifying the postponement date and filed with the secretary of the
appraisal district Board of Directors prior to October 1, 1981; and
WHEREAS, subject only to those minor exceptions authorized by
Section 6.02 of the Texas Property Tax Code, the boundaries of the Harris
County Appraisal District are coterminous with those of Harris County and
encompass approximately 300 separate taxing units; and
WHEREAS, said taxing units are predominantly urban in character
and contain vast numbers of taxable properties, real and personal; and
WHEREAS, the magnitude of the task of the Harris County Appraisal
District in implementing the conversion of the appraisal functions of mul-
tiple taxing units to a single appraisal unit by January 1, 1982, would be
awesome, formidable and difficult; and
WHEREAS, because of the magnitude of such a task and all atten-
dant difficulties, it is the judgment of this governing body that the best
interest of taxpayers and taxing units within the district would be promoted
and served if the Harris County Appraisal District were required to implement
its ultimate appraisal function and responsibility over a three-year period;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY
OF WEST UNIVERSITY PLACE, TEXAS:
Section 1. That it be, and it is hereby declared to be, the de-

the provisions of the Texas Property Tax Code. to-wit:
In 1982. said District shall appraise all property within the
City of Houston (the most populous city in the district according to the 1980
Federal Census) and within the Houston Independent School District (the
school district with the highest average daily attendance in the 1980-1981

for which the appraisal is to be performed and if said request is approved
by the Board of Directors of the District. From and after 1984. the Harris
